HENRY HAZLITT CONTEST FOR BUSINESS FICTION
This contest catch my eye, because it doesn’t cost you to enter and it gives you a cash prizes, plus a chance to get published with an advance and royalties.
Traditionally, business has been portrayed negatively in most novels. The purpose of this contest is to provide some balance to this situation, and thus provide a publication opportunity to debut novelists with a positive business mindset.
I hope someone in the audience has a novel that fits.

It boggles my mind that you find time to blog everyday. I have trouble blogging once a week. Keep up the great work. No need to respond.
Hi Kathy, Thanks so much for this lead. If not for your blog, I would not have known about the Henry Hazlitt award for business fiction. I submitted my middle grade novel, The Weed Whackers, Open For Business. And thanks for all your great information.
